My recommendation, either grab a pair of rear pilots to match your fronts and leave the fronts on. I cant imagine it would be terribly overpriced if you did tire rack or similar. Or, look at sumitumo zIIIs. That's what I have on mine. They were about as cheap as your ebay tires and a lot of guys like them. They also wear better than the pilots (rating wise).
You do realize that a lot of major retailers sell on eBay, right? Just because it's on eBay doesn't mean it's automatically lower quality.

I have been running Sumitomo HTR ZIII for a few years and like them a lot. You can't beat the price, either.
